  • I guess that last question was a bit silly since you also have this on your profile:

    "Asians, Negros and halfbreeds are devoid of souls and have inferior spirit akin to the great apes."

    Why do you believe this stuff? Why do you take those books so seriously? Do you?

    And you did take psychedelics at one point in your life? If yes, didn't the experience make you question any of this stuff? What happened?

  • But that core can surely be based on more realistic filters than today's irrational ones. Many of the widespread concepts ruling today's society have become more harmful than they are useful, if they ever were useful...

    Anyway, I checked out your profile, and I would be interested in learning whether or not you consider yourself a "racist"? It appears you think that different races should be treated differently. What exactly are the reasons behind that? Only scientific ones or also emotional?

  • Exquisite observation. Yet in the midst of psychedelic flexibility, we must retain a cohesion, a core that enables us to separate and remain capable of processing perception.

  • What he talks about starting at 5:07 is very important. "Common sense view of the world is not the only view of the world."

    Having had a recent experience with "philosopher's stones" I totally agree that there is an immense potential in psychedelics, and its important to realize how flexible our perception is, so that we don't take the concepts and words we invent too seriously and do silly things in the name of mere illusions.
